(Image source from: Chinese car dealership receives 1320 bundles of coins for a car})
It might have been difficult to accomplish the task of counting these many coins, at the same time it also shows the stinginess of the man who has saved pile of coins over the years to fulfil his dream.
A Chinese man walks into Chinese car dealership to purchase a brand new sports car worth £70,000.
He even made down payment for the same in form of coins.
It took 10 staff members of the car dealership in Liaoning province over an hour to unload and set the coin stacks apart from counting. The anonymous man paid around 1,320 bundles of coins, each wrapped in brown paper to buy the car. With these many bundles loaded, the lorry weighed four tonnes.
The staff members spent hours for counting the heap before finalising the amount. A sign board written in bold letters reading 'A caring and high quality service' was kept at the reception as the desk was heaped with coins.
